OVERLOOKING PICTURESQUE KILLINEY Bay, one of Ireland’s most extraordinary homes is now on the market. Ananda is a masterpiece of contemporary design, seamlessly blending luxury living with the awe-inspiring natural beauty of its surroundings. Set on an elevated site of about one acre, the property offers uninterrupted panoramic views of Killiney Bay, Bray Head and the sweeping Wicklow Mountains.
This home, designed by architect Ross Cahill O’Brien, captures the essence of the location — a serene and harmonious fusion of indoor and outdoor living. And it’s now on the market for a whopping €6,950,000.
The beauty of Ananda lies in its design — a stunning interplay between nature and modern architecture. The home is thoughtfully constructed with expansive windows, ensuring that the magnificent views are never out of sight. The design reflects a careful consideration of the environment, with the outside invited in through clever use of glass, steel, granite and hardwood.
The result is a living space that feels at one with its environment. One of the most striking features of the property is the dramatic view of the Sugarloaf Mountain, visible as soon as you step through the front door. It’s a perfect example of the home’s flawless integration with its surroundings.
With about 929 m² of living space, Ananda offers seven spacious bedrooms, six bathrooms and two guest toilets. The layout is ideal for both family living and entertaining, with each room meticulously designed to enhance comfort and maximise the stunning unmatched views. The double living room is a showstopper, featuring a striking stone wall and a climate-controlled glass wine room, perfect for any wine connoisseur. A hidden prep area and walk-in fridge make entertaining effortless.
The heart of the home is the open plan kitchen and dining space, featuring a Strato Cucine kitchen imported from Milan. Here, top-of-the-line appliances by Gaggenau and Wolf are paired with sleek design, creating a culinary space as functional as it is beautiful. The kitchen opens onto a generous 12-seater dining area, with sliding windows that offer an outdoor dining experience with ocean and mountain views.
The private spaces of Ananda are equally impressive. The primary suite had a curved glass wall offering super views over Killiney Bay and beyond. This serene retreat also features automated curtains and luxurious walk-in closets. The en suite bathroom is a spa-like sanctuary, finished in exquisite Carrara marble, with a freestanding bath and a wet-room style shower with panoramic views.
The additional bedrooms are equally well-appointed, each offering ample closet space, study areas and stunning views. For families, the home also features a games room, a custom home office and staff quarters, ensuring that all aspects of family life are catered to in ultimate comfort.
Ananda’s design is a celebration of the outdoors. The property includes beautifully landscaped gardens with multiple seating areas, a BBQ area, an outdoor fireplace and even a detached gym and yoga studio with changing facilities. The seamless transition from indoor living to outdoor spaces ensures that you can enjoy the changing landscapes from sunrise to sunset, all while retaining your privacy and seclusion.
